Overview

Use this command to configure the persistent sessions feature. Persistent sessions allows users to be remembered after a successful login. This means that the user will not have to log in again for a period of time (even if the user, for example, closes the browser).
Note: This feature is only applicable when using username and password based authentication.
Note: This feature is currently only applicable for users (such as Spotfire Web Player users) logging in through a web browser. To configure the behavior of the Spotfire client, use the config-login-dialog command.
Note: Persistent sessions can be invalidated using the invalidate-persistent-sessions command.
